HC Deb 21 July 1898 vol 62 c649
VISCOUNT VALENTIA (Oxford)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether he can give any information as to the result of his inquiry into the accommodation provided in the various Voluntary schools in Oxford; and whether the already adequate accommodation for the number of children attending these schools will be recognised as such by the Department?

SIR J. GORST

I am unable at present to give an answer to the noble Lord's Question, as the census of certain parts of the city, which is being taken by the School Board, at the request of the Education Department, is not yet completed. No change will be made in the practice of the Department in regard to the subject mentioned in the second paragraph of the Question.
